Base Engine<br />

Fuel Filter<br />

<strong>The</strong> five-micron fuel filter traps the smallest<br />

impurities, providing clean fuel and extending<br />

injector life.<br />

Oil Filter<br />

Volvo full-flow and bypass oil filters are<br />

manufactured to have the correct balance<br />

between flow rate and size. This ensures that<br />

oil flow saturates the entire filter media, and<br />

provides for extreme oil cleanliness throughout<br />

the service interval.<br />

Coolant Filter<br />

<strong>The</strong> coolant filter protects the integrity of the<br />

coolant system, the water pump and thermostat,<br />

and their respective seals by removing impurities<br />

and contaminates.<br />

Camshaft damper AND Rear Drive<br />

<strong>The</strong> Volvo engine’s reputation for its smooth,<br />

quiet operation is not by accident. Unique to<br />

the <strong>D13</strong> is a camshaft damper which absorbs<br />

camshaft torsionals induced by the ultra-high<br />

fuel injection pressure. Additionally, as a member<br />

of the engine gear train, the large mass of the<br />

flywheel absorbs inputs from the other gears<br />

for a smoother operating engine and extended<br />

component reliability and life.<br />

POWER CYLINDER<br />

At the heart of the power cylinder is a stiff<br />

connecting rod with wide journals and four-bolt<br />

attachment for superior strength and a rifle drilled<br />

oil passage for pressurized lubrication of the<br />

piston pin. For maximum strength under high<br />

temperatures, the piston is oil-cooled and utilizes<br />

a one-piece monotherm design. <strong>The</strong> top piston<br />

ring uses a proprietary PVD coating process,<br />

which when mated with the plateau honed<br />

cylinder liners provides excellent oil control and<br />

minimizes bore wear for long engine life.
